Paradigm Changes in a 40-Year-old Operation: Inflatable Penile Implant (IPP); Instructional Course: Paul Perito; Steven Wilson; Tobias Steen. May 2019

Most urologic surgery has abandoned the skin incision. Despite still requiring an incision, many new developments have occurred in surgical technique and management. Join three very experienced implanters as they discuss these new enhancements: different skin incision location for placement, much safer locations for reservoirs, new infection prevention and management ideas, new techniques for straightening Peyronie’s with implant and tricks for lengthening the penis.

Learning Objectives:

  • Experiment with a new surgical incision of placing the IPP — subcoronal
  • Abandon traditional retropubic reservoir placement in favor of a much safer location that avoids the possibility of vessel or viscus injury
  • Prevent the development of device infection and if it occurs, suggest new methods of management that might forestall device removal
  • Apply new methods of cylinder placement and adjunctive measures that increase perceived penile length following IPP placement
  • Adopt newer adjunctive measures with IPP placement in Peyronie’s that promote immediate straightening

Dr. Perito Presents Minimally Invasive Infrapubic Implant in Tampa

Dr. Paul Peritoeducation, erectile dysfunction, IPP Technique

Dr. Perito Presented the Minimally Invasive Infrapubic Implant Technique and Proctored a LAB at a recent Advanced Surgical Skills Workshop in Tampa, FL – March 8-9, 2019

Dr. Rafael Carrion and the team from USF hosted a didactic and surgical skills workshop in Tampa, FL over the weekend of March 8-9, 2019, in which Dr. Perito was honored to be a participant.  Nearly 30 physicians from around the US attended focusing on men’s health and surgical treatments for advanced stage ED.  Dr. Perito participated in a dinner discussion Friday evening where they discussed common challenges faced by physicians during surgery and advancements in reservoir placement and placement techniques.  The following day he presented during a didactic session and proctored the infrapubic implant station in the lab. Seven top implanters and corporate team members joined Dr. Perito in presenting to some of today’s top urologists. Presentation topics included a Men’s Health update from Dr. Perito and step-by-step penoscrotal and infrapubic penile implant techniques.  These workshops provide amazing opportunities urologists throughout the country to learn from one another and share ideas that will help evolve the patient experience and common practices of penile implant surgery.
